3. Another stupid move

“This rule works against basic supply and demand,” Stephen Yurek, president and CEO of the Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI), said in a statement.

“By extending the compliance deadline, the EPA is maintaining and even increasing demand in the market for existing refrigerants while supply continues to fall under the AIM Act. So, instead of falling, refrigerant prices are likely to rise, resulting in higher service costs, and higher costs for consumers.”

4. We have a guy who makes things up in the Oval Office.

Because he really thinks he’s just president of the viewers of one network on TV. He’s called our stupid president.

6. Also from the article...

But rolling back the regulations is highly unlikely to lower grocery prices for everyday consumers. Supermarkets operate on razor-thin margins and have very little wiggle room to lower good prices that have been on the rise as the Iran war has sent diesel prices surging. Fresh produce prices rose sharply in April — up 6.5% from a year earlier — because the cost of shipping has soared over the past several months.

7. So stores are going to buy older technology freezers?

First of all, they are not going to replace existing freezers until the old ones wear out. Second, switching to older refrigerants would not be possible in most cases. And the older refrigerants are most likely MORE expensive in most cases because they are being phased out in favor of the new ones by companies making them.
